Roasted Beets Salad with Miso Dressing and Walnuts

Step 1

Turn the oven to 400 degrees

Step 2

Trim the top off the beets and scrub the beets clean. Cut them in halves.

Step 3

Wrap the beets in foil and place them on a cookie sheet. Bake them for about 1 hour. Take them out and check them for doneness by inserting a fork. Roast them for some more if they are not soft.

Step 4

Cool the beets completely then peel the skin using a paring knife. Keep them in the refrigerator until chilled.

Step 5

Make the dressing by mixing miso, sugar, vinegar, and olive oil in a jar. Cover with a lid and shake the jar vigorously to emulsify the dressing.

Step 6

Slice the beets and dish them on individual plates. Drizzle dressing and top the salad with crumbled walnuts and garnish with chopped parsley.
